Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of cosmetic results following primary radiation therapy for stages I and II carcinoma of the breast.
TL;DR: Cosmetic results were lessened when the biopsy procedure included a wide resection of adjacent breast tissue or when theBiopsy scar was obvious, and increasing doses of external beam radiation were associated with greater degrees of retraction and fibrosis of the treated breast.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathologic predictors of early local recurrence in Stage I and II breast cancer treated by primary radiation therapy
TL;DR: Through pathologic examination of the primary, the authors identified a subgroup of patients with a considerably increased risk of local recurrence following biopsy and primary radiotherapy, including patients with cases in which the biopsy was less than excisional.
Journal ArticleDOI
The significance of mediastinal involvement in early stage Hodgkin's disease.
TL;DR: There is a 92% relapse‐free and 97% overall survival in the 93 patients without extensive mediastinal disease and this subgroup of patients with MOPP chemotherapy in addition to mantle and para‐aortic irradiation is treated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast relapse following primary radiation therapy for early breast cancer. I. Classification, frequency and salvage.
TL;DR: The results indicate that primary radiation therapy provides a high likelihood of local tumor control and the analysis of failure suggests methods for decreasing each type of local recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cosmetic results following primary radiation therapy for early breast cancer
TL;DR: The conclusion is that, in general, primary radiation treatment provides highly satisfactory cosmetic results for patients with early breast cancer.
